Hey RhythmTech, overall I really like this.
I like the main hook, and the percussion gives it a nice shuffling feel.
I particularly like the rising intensity before it kicks in proper at 54 seconds.
The sweeping stereo build up is very effective.
I can imagine that working well on the dancefloor.
The only problem i have with it is at 3 mins 25, 3 mins 27, 3 mins 30, 3 mins 34 and 2 mins 35, where it gets faster.
It's like the switch is slightly too sudden at those points, particularly at 3 mins 25, 27 and 30.
I think it would sound better if these changes were announced somehow a beat or two before. Say with a 1 or 2 beat fill of some description.
It might be due to the percussion underneath, because it doesn't sound like at each of those points it switches up on the same beat/hit of percussion on each bar.
Maybe it's all intentional but it sounds a bit strange to my ears.
Other than that i think it builds up nicely from there, with some nice pattern switching as the track progresses..
The layers then drop out cleanly towards the end, making it flow nicely.
If you are planning on changing it about a bit, from my personal tastes, I would like to hear it get a fair bit more intense after the breakdown.
Where the hook rises in intensity at the start, maybe you would be able to use where that ends at 54 seconds, and then use that as a starting point for raising the intensity again, and then slamming back into the track?
Just a thought.
